Museos de la Atalaya, Clock museum in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
The Palace of Time within Atalaya Museums contains 287 antique timepieces from European master craftsmen spanning three centuries of horology development.
The museum complex sits in the Atalaya Gardens, purchased in 1877 by an English general who constructed a neoclassical-Victorian palace on the city heights.
The museum integrates wine education through exhibitions about Jerez and Manzanilla de Sanlúcar denominations, connecting timekeeping with regional traditions.
Guided tours operate Monday through Friday at 9:30, 10:30, 11:30, 12:30, and 13:15, with standard admission costing 6 euros per person.
Every clock in the collection maintains operational status, with the oldest specimen dating from 1670, accompanied by baroque music and holographic displays.
